THE RETURN OF ROSE O'RION

Some really fabulous art from Dylan Teague to complement a new Rose O'Rion text story I wrote which'll be appearing in the next issue of Zarjaz magazine (from the UK-based Futurequake stable). This should be be out shortly-ish (september, maybe? You fellas'll be the first to know...)

The story's called, appropriately enough, "Unfinished Business". I had a lot of fun writing it and I hope you enjoy reading it.

Huge thanks to Dylan for being such a great sport and returning to a character we co-created waaaaay back in the 90's, despite being an extremely busy in-demand guy.

Meanwhile, please continue to support small-press comic and book publishers in the UK, US or wherever you live.

As well as providing an alternative to 'mainstream' publishers, they are also its lifeblood, giving elbow-room for a new generation of creators to learn their chops and grow. In the case of Zarjaz, they also supplement 2000AD, publishing strips containing obscure and less well-known characters along with fan favourites such as Dredd, etc. And this is all done with the support of 2000AD Editorial.
